Ubit,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Actually I did install using the bin folder directly from the distribution 
zip. I then copied the one .db file for the statistic, and built new 
FlotsamCache.ini file using the example file and the information from my old 
StandaloneCommon.ini file.  I did the same with the standalone_common.ini 
file. The only edit I did to the opensim.ini was to change from the grid 
common include file to the standalone  at the bottom of the .ini file.
It's the same process I've been using for all my grid regions and the 
standalone that I have been using.

I'm going to try doing it directly on my windows machine rather than using 
my Linux servers.  I do have a sort of standalone on my desktop using  only 
the local address.  I can try it with just a round island region with 
nothing at all and use the internal SQL rather than mariadb.

I have not yet tried to update the several var regions I'm running on the 
grid, and have been only updating the oceans and fill-in regions I have as a 
starting point.  I have not had any issues with the OSgrid  regions. just 
the standalone.

It's something that is missing so I may need to rebuild the standalone using 
it's OAR file and reload my inventory from an IRA.  I'll try that if I can 
bring up a virgin standalone on my desktop.

Tom

Try to install on a new folder.

If you are using sqlite, copy files *.db from current to the new folder.

Copy Regions folder.

should also be safe to copy the assetcache folder

use the new ini files, edited to your needs/setup

SimianGrid support was removed. You may have files relative to it on your 
bin folder
